What is he made of?

I've just been reading the latest YBW news of Robin K-J in the southern ocean.

He is one tough cookie.

Much like when he dived under Suhaili he's been under the boat.

Respect!

Blimey.

Sounds like if he'd been aboard You go Boss?, he'd have mixed up some epoxy, machined a few bolts and fixed the keel back on.

He knew it was the only option, after trying everything else and top marks for going ahead and doing it! Most peoples toes would curl just at the thought of dipping them in such cold water! I thought his book about his first round the world race was great reading. It sounds like he is getting more than enough material for another one!

Lets's face it, as this race is turning out to be a race of attrition, he'll probably win !

God knows how many other incidents he will have to deal with before he gets back though.

What is he made of ? Tougher stuff than me !!!!!

Whats the connection with anchors and fishing nets please?

 

[Vara]

Absolutely astonishing!

 

[Captain_Wolfie]

I think he means the anchor line of the net, since he cut it. That is my guess anyway, but I could be wrong. He is not that clear on describing the action, but with a deep frozen brain after that refreshing dip that is hardly surprising!
